Listening to The Radio
Digital Radio Frequency Display
This clock radio features a digital radio frequency display instead of a dial scale to make tuning easier, especially in a dark
room. The jumbo LED time display automatically changes to a radio frequency display as soon as you begin turning the
TUNING control. And the display automatically changes back to the correct time within 5 seconds after you release the
TUNING control.
1. Set the BAND AM/FM/SOUNDS selector switch to the desired band, AM or FM.
2. Set the VOLUME control to a low setting.
3. Press the RADIO ON/OFF button to turn the radio ‘On’. The display changes from time to an
AM or FM Frequency.
4. Rotate the TUNING control to select the desired radio frequency.
Important: It is not necessary to set the display to the exact frequency of your desired station. Just use the
display as a guide and rotate the TUNING control until you find the strongest and the best reception even if the
frequency number shown on the display is slightly higher or lower than the actual station frequency.
Within 5 seconds after you release the TUNING control the display automatically returns to the correct time. If you wish to
check the station frequency again, press the ALARM MODE (Display) button. The display will change from time to radio
frequency for 5 seconds and then return to time display.
5. Adjust the VOLUME control to the desired setting.
6. When you are finished listening press the RADIO ON/OFF button to turn the radio ‘Off’.
Antenna Information
AM – The AM bar antenna is inside the cabinet. If AM reception is weak,
change the position of the cabinet until the internal antenna picks up the
strongest signal.
FM – Make sure the external FM antenna wire on the back cabinet is fully
unwound and extended to its full length.

to the radio or the buzzer. To operate the soothing sounds:
Press the RADIO ON/OFF button to turn the system ‘On’.
Set the AM/FM/SOUNDS selector to SOUNDS. One of the 4 sounds will begin playing.
Select the desired sound with the Soothing Sounds selector switch.
Adjust the VOLUME control to the desired level.
When you are finished listening press the RADIO ON/OFF button to turn the system ‘Off’.

Buttons. The display will change from correct time to “wake-up time” and the DAY indicators will show you the alarm mode
that is currently selected.
